IN ATACS FG & AU
Sometimes no matter how hard you try, you just can't get something locally and that's when the internet becomes a great tool to search out those difficult to find items. Well that's what I found when it came to finding Name Tapes available in good ole' Blighty - just NOTHING available in ATACS FG or AU.
Thanks to a tip-off I found these guys based in the states doing the very tapes I wanted in FG & AU ATACS - plus more besides, check out their website for full lists etc of their range http://www.1800nametape.com/
For those that aren't aware of ATACS FG this is the newer version with green in the pattern, FG-Forest Green as opposed to the Tan in the now standard AU version.

Anyway, placed my order for the types and sizes I wanted - they make a great range in 5, 4 and 3 inch lengths - the 3 inch is ideal for short bag or shoulder Velcro mounting points. I should point out that International Postage from the States was a very reasonable $6 USDollars - not bad but best order or share an order with mates to help keep costs down.
The Name Tapes are quality products on licensed material and are well sewn and pretty ridged. What I like about them is that when you remove them there is no danger of leaving behind just the vecro backing and tearing off the name portion (which you can get with some not so well sewn tapes).
The website does a good selection of rank, unit and other patches in all the latest backgrounds and colours (even that good looking NWU, US Navy Digicam).
I think their offerings are reasonably priced plus postage won't break the bank from the States either - just need my A-TACS FG now!
Definately one to keep book marked.
Check our their website for a great choice of tapes:
